This year's Israeli annual attack features a massive and unprecedented pr campaign, which appears especially to target the western audience. The Israeli government has obviously learned its lessons from previous wars, and is planning to win the heart and mind of every single one of us.
While the
list of its criminal actions in Gaza are growing by day, the Israeli military uploads fun little videos of its heroic and humane activities on Youtube. On its special
page, you can watch how soldiers admit wounded children for health care, and how the brave pilots eliminate Hamas terrorists, and the terrorists only, using precision bombardments.
Also, the army's
English website features a banner, showing female Israeli soldiers in nice and peaceful poses (check also this interesting story on
Haaretz). Gabriel, one of the
Jews sans frontieres, is quite correct to note that "Israel is the only country in the Middle East where the government uses feminine sexuality to market mass murder".

They won my heart and mind the day they announced that this time they telephone people to inform them in advance that their house is going to be bombed.
Really, it tore my heart out and blew my mind.

Don't seem to be winning it though!
